Thirty patients from the Veter

Temple, will be guests of A&M
and the Athletic Department at the
football game here Sept. 22, be
tween Villanova and the Aggies.
The group will have special seats
on the cinder path on the 50-
yard line.
They will , be met by P. L.
(Pinky) Downs Jr., official greeter
for the college and will have lunch
and an evening meal in Duncan
Mess Hall. This will mark the
eleventh game patients will have
attended at A&M. Soft drinks will
be served during the game and
each will receive a football pro
gram.
“This is one way we have of
paying tribute to those men who
have given so much that we may
continue to enjoy the blesings of a

GETTYSBURG, Pa., — President
Eisenhower kicked off his second
term drive yesterday with a plea
to pai'ty leaders to “change a
campaign into a crusade” and
rally millions of voters to the Re
publican baner.
A crowd of more than 500 of the
GOP elite cheered the President
enthusiastically as he expressed
confidence the party will win in
November if there is enough hard
work.
In a vigorous, happy mood, Ei
senhower said “don’t let our peo
ple down by writing off as hope
less any contest, by conceding any
area. This is the road to stalemate
or to defeat.”
He spoke in a big, flag-decked
tent pitched in a rolling meadow
about 200 yards from his farm
home.
Eisenhower made no attack on
the Democrats. He left that to Vice
President Nixon and Leonard W.
Hall, chairman of the GOP Na
tional Committee, who also spoke.
Nixon hit out at Adlai Steven
son, the Democratic presidential
nominee, for suggesting, as Nixon
put it, that there is no real peace
and then suggesting the possibility
of abolishing the draft.
“That,” said the vice president,
‘is the height of political fakery
and irresponsibility.”
Hall told the chuckling audience
that Stevenson and his running
mate, Sen. Estes Kefauver of Ten-
nesse, are out on “a strange
honeymoon for the ticket that was
united in the shotgun ceremonies
in Chacago last month.”
The GOP chairman also turned
his fire on the campaigning of
former President Truman, which
“We want to double membership
in the Poultry Science Club this
year and make everyone feel that
he is part of the organization,”
he called a “travesty on states-
menship.”
Hall added, “I feel confident the
people of the United States will
see through the sham and hypoc
risy of the Democrat song-and-
dance team of Adlai, Keef and
Hai'ry.”
Dressed casually in a tan sports
coat and brown trousers, Eisen
hower got a rousing round of ap
plause at the outset of his talk
by reporting on his health.
He said he wanted to answer a
question that many people have
been putting to him, and then de
clared:
“Ladies and gentlemen, I feel
fine.”
In calling for a new crusade to
lead the party to victory in No
vember, Eisenhower referred to
it-as he did in accepting the nom
ination in San Francisco-as the
party of the future. He said it is
best suited for the management
of the American government.
Eisenhower, as well as those
who spoke ahead of him in re
porting on the party’s outlook,
placed much emphasis on need for
getting voters registered and to
the polls.
“We want the decision of Amer
ica, not the decision of the minor
ity.” the President declared, rap
ping his knuckles against the
lectern.
That touched off another big
round of applause among the cam
paign leaders assembled here from
all parts of the United States.
Nixon went into the question of
whether or not-and how-the Re
publicans should reply to Demo
cratic campaign attacks.
“Where Democrats commit dis
tortion or misstatement” Nixon
each May and honors graduating
seniors with a barbeque.
said, “it is our responsibility to
correct the record.”
With Mrs. Eisenhower and Mrs.
Nixon on the platform with him,
the President got another laugh
with an illusion to the victory the
Democrats scored in the Maine
election Monday.
Eisenhower said the Republi
cans “have a great party” with
“people working all the way from
Los Angeles to Maine.’ ’
Then he caught himself and
said with a chuckle regarding his
mention of Maine: “That’s a bad
word.”
Before the speaking program
started, Eisenhower wandered hap
pily among his guests, shaking
many hands and calling greetings
to old friends.
After the speech Eisenhower was
all but mobbed by the surge of
Republican workers to the plat
form.
Eisenhower said the campaign
now getting under way “concerns
the management, the direction,
the conduct of a mighty Rebublic.”
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A Democratic campaign leader
announced in Washington Kefau
ver will embark on a 15-state
“truth-telling” tour beginning to
morrow.
James A. Finnegan, Democratic
campaign manager, said the peo
ple “are entitled to know the
truth about the sorry performance
in office of the special interest Ei
senhower - Nixon administration.”
The tour will take Kefauver into
virtually every section of the na
tion. Vice President Nixon starts
on a similar cross-country swing
next Tuesday.
Republican National Chairman
Leonard Hall, in a speech at the
Gettysburg rally, said GOP work-
He added that it also represents
“the life and death interests of 168
million human beings, engaged in
a fantastically complex 400-billion-
dollar-a - year economy, endowed
with a mission to champion hu
man freedom and human rights in
a world where no other power to
day is able to sustain that mis
sion.”
“I think our fundamental ef
fort,” he declared, “should be
this: Every Republican, every in
dependent, every discerning Dem
ocrat, every thinking citizen re
gardless of his past or present po
litical record can, should, must be
persuaded to vote Republican on
Nov. 6.”
He added, “This year’s entire
campaign will be an appalling ex
ercise in futility if during its
course we should get people to
the boiling point, brimming with
enthusiasm and zeal, only to find
out on election day that they can
not vote because their names are
not registered on the polling
books.”
ers should use “good old-fashioned
shoe leather” in the campaign.
And referring to. Stevenson, Ke
fauver and Amman, Hall said he
believed Americans “will see
through the sham and hypocrisy
of the Democrat song-and-dance
team of Adlai, Keef and Harry.”
Kefauver, on the other hand,
said Stevenson is setting a “great
pace” in the campaign, and if
“we all back him up, we will have
a great victory.”
Meanwhile, Sen. Gore (D-Tenn)
said the Senate Privileges and
Elections subcommittee, which is
looking into federal election prac
tices, announced all major politi
cal organizations will be asked for
a detailed report on campaign
funds as of Oct. 1.

said senior Don Brockman, presi
dent .
Anyone interested in poultry
science may join the club, regard
less of his major, Brockman said.
For instance, he explained that
agricultural education majors have
been active members. He also urged
graduate students to joih the club.
“Through the Poultry Science
Club this year we want to show
freshmen what great opportunities
there are in the poultry husbandry
field. Recently there have not been
enough graduate available to fill
all the jobs open,” Brockman said.
Also, Brockman hopes that many
students will be interested in an
nual poultry judging contests en
tered by junior and senior teams.
The A&M senior team won second
place in competition in Chicago last
year, and the juniors participated
in a contest in Starkville, Miss.
“Our goal this year is ‘Beat
Arkansas,’ Brockman said. Ark
ansas teams placed first in both
the junior and senior poultry judg
ing contests last year.
C. R. Ryan, assistant professor
of poultry husbandry, is coach of
the junior team; and Ed Parnell,
professor of poultry husbandry, is
coach of the senior team.
